Abstract

Photoluminescence behaviour of monoclinic SrAl2O4 was studied for nano size strontium aluminate SrAl2O4, which was synthesized via solution combustion method (CSM). Structural and morphological properties were confirmed by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopic analysis including scanning electron microscopic method. The crystal size was obtained between 12-19 nm. The emission spectrum was recorded under 254 nm excitation and consist peaks in UV and visible region. The peak in UV region is intense then visible emissions.
